Food for Fines

Running from December 1 through the 10th, you can donate non-perishable foods in cans, boxes and plastic jars (no glass) at the library in place of your fines!

This is only for late fines. It doesn't work for money you owe because of lost or damaged materials. Also, we are only accepting human food (no animal) in undamaged packaging that is not past the expiration date. All food will be given to the Northfield Township Food Pantry.

Check the table below to see how many items you'll need to erase your fines. It's limitless. We'll go up to any amount.
